Excerpt from The Works of William Shakespeare, Vol. 1 Little more than two centuries has elapsed since William Shake speare conversed with our tongue, and trod the self-same soil with ourselves; and if it were not for the records kept by our Church in its registers of births, marriages, and burials, we should at this moment be as personally ignorant of the sweet swan of Avon as we are of the old minstrel and rhapsodist of Meles.
